Permit is in hand

After paying the final fee today to the city, the building permit is finally released and official - and proudly posted in thw window (as required).

Only thing missing was that the contractor's license had expired. He needs to renew his insurance and pay a re-instatement fee (less than $60) to L&I in order to be "current" again.

Dropped him a voice mail and he called me back late tonight and promised to take care of it. Do not want to act as "general contractor" for the initial building and framing (liability and tax issues), but can take that role once we get to the electrical, and finsihing work (easy part for me), since I do not plan to hire anyone to take care of those tasks.
